Joe Budden Claims Nicki Minaj & Cardi B Shift Release Dates To Compete

by

Nicki Minaj and Cardi B have been fighting for the throne of female rap for years now. Wherever you fall on that debate, you might think that the conversation is over already in either’s favor, but you can’t deny that it could all change quickly in the public eye. However, the recent drops of Pink Friday 2 a few months ago and the brand new “Like What” freestyle (and “Bongos” with Megan Thee Stallion a couple of months before the Barbz’s 2023 fav) have respectively reopened a conversation around how they tend to drop around the same time. Moreover, The Joe Budden Podcast recently weighed in on this, and its titular host thinks that this has been a long-running phenomenon.

“Whenever Cardi was trying to drop, Nicki was trying to drop,” Joe Budden told his co-hosts. “And that’s why Nicki kept changing dates. Don’t quote me on nothing [sorry, Joe]. But Nicki changed that date, like, five times trying to match up with whenever Cardi was dropping. And that was supposed to be the big… I mean, just as consumers looking at it, that was supposed to be the 50 [and] Kanye. And that, I feel like, would have helped Cardi. Nicki, I think, was gonna sell whatever she was gonna sell regardless. But Cardi, I think, would’ve gotten a big boost and just catapult from that marketing.

Joe Budden Speaks On Nicki Minaj & Cardi B Dropping Around The Same Time

“It didn’t happen, and then Nicki dropped,” Joe Budden continued. “I ain’t spoke to nobody up there in Atlantic, but I think Cardi backed out of that. I think she ran from that. And now we about to be in March, spring, summer, year six! It’s year six. I think a lot of these girl rappers are going through City Girls drama and keeping it low. I just mean, where the branding is louder than everything else.“

Meanwhile, what do you think about this debate? What about Budden’s thoughts on other debates such as the current Big Three rankings for 2010s hip-hop between Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, and Drake?

Rae Sremmurd Rumored “Sremm 4 Life” Release Date Revealed

by

The wait is almost over and it seems like Sremm season is officially here as Rae Sremmurd revs up for their next album. It’s been roughly five years since the “No Type” duo delivered their last studio album, SremmLife 3. The project served as a triple-disc offering that offered a group project and two solo efforts from Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi respectively. In the time since the two have slowed down on their releases and maintained a rather low profile as fans anticipate their next move. However, they’ve provided several indications that they were hard at work on their next studio album. 

In the last year, Rae Sremmurd has continued to build anticipation for their next project. They delivered a slew of singles including “Denial,” and “Community Dick” ft. Flo Milli.” By the end of 2022, they closed the year out with “Torpedo,” produced by Sonny Digital, and most recently, dropped off “Sucka Or Sum.” It seems that “Sucka Or Sum” was the last piece of promotional singles ahead of the release. These records undoubtedly held fans over, many simply hoped that the two would finalize a release date and provide us with new heat before the summer.

Rae Sremmurd “SremmLife4” Release Date

After some significant anticipation, a release date for Sremm 4 Life has been floating around on the Internet. @OnThinnIce, the Twitter page known for breaking news on release dates, said that Sremm 4 Life will be out next month on April 7th. At this point, there hasn’t been any confirmation surrounding if this release date is accurate. We’ve reached out to reps for Rae Sremmurd and will update this article accordingly.

Though they haven’t formally announced the date, Slim Jxmmi and Swae Lee are gearing up to release a new single this evening. With production from Pharrell Williams and Mike Will Made it, the duo is set to drop their new single, “Tanisha” this week. Hopefully, this won’t be the last single they deliver ahead of their new project. However, we’re eager to hear what they’ve been working on over the past five years. Check out the post above surrounding the alleged release date and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.
